A Celebration of Midwifery with Corinne Westing, CNM

Many couples plan home births because they believe that most of the time pregnancy and childbirth are normal functions of a healthy body, not a potential life-and-death crisis that requires the supervision of a surgeon. At home, you decide where to deliver, you can move around as you desire, decide who you want there. There is no risk of unnecessary interventions, you can eat your own food, cuddle in your own bed, have a waterbirth, have siblings there or not. Bio: For Corinne, working in home birth is a perfect extension of her passion for helping women and childbearing people access the full spectrum of patient-centered reproductive health care. By recognizing and promoting the physiology of reproductive health cycles and events, while promoting current evidence-based practices, Corinne works to partner with her clients for an empowering and safe pregnancy and birth, as well as reproductive health across the lifespan. https://gentlebirthcare.com  To ask Dr. Steph a question, call 708.808.6250 and you will hear your answer on one of our episodes.
